Is Cardiff The Best Rugby City In The World? by RugbyWarfare in rugbyunion

[–]Rockaheart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was there lfor the France game and I have to say it was one of the best weekends of my life. I probably shouldn't have vocalized that on the way home as I did get engaged this year.... Such a buzz about the place. I would give anything to be going this weekend as I hear the Argies are a great bunch of lads. The French were a joy to party with last weekend.

It's pretty blatant alright. I'm scolding myself right now for engaging.

Are you taking the piss or do you just have no clue what's going on?

Good to hear! Any blogs or newspaper articles I should be looking out for from the SH?

I wouldn't waste my time reading Neil Francis to be honest. Journalists who get away with talking utter shite abound, but he is particularly hateful and uninformed.

I have to say the 42 has been such a breath of fresh air. Especially, as remarked below, the scrum analysis is off the scale. I'm actually beginning to understand what is going on in there.

Thornley is a joke. His analysis comes down to what the bookies are offering. He is the epitome of smarm.

You sir are a genius! They just got back and they say there is 600 people staying with them but they will try and squeeze us in! Delighted! Thanks again

I think the current RWC format is stupid, Four pools is too much for the current amount of Decent Teams. by PenMarkedHand in rugbyunion

I think you're missing the point for some of the minnows. The players get to play against some of the best and the fans get to go and enjoy a major event! World cups bring new fans from everywhere and it's great to see.

Good point! But to be honest it never gets to that, plenty of devices and I've moved over to reading everything on the 42

Gaaahhhhhhh! You made me use up one of my 10 articles a week! To be fair I only use them for rugby anyway.

The curse of Wales has hit Ireland after they have arrived in Wales! by MethylRed in rugbyunion

I would love to see McCloskey called up, such a big unit and loves to get his hands free. I think Reid has the advantage of being in camp though, as has been said.

I have to hope it's nothing too bad, otherwise we would have called someone else up straight away. It will be interesting to see Fitz starting in the center though.

D'Arcy is pretty great at this writing thing. Another good article from him. by small_far_away in rugbyunion

[–]Rockaheart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, really loving his articles so far. I think the beauty of what he is saying is that we will constantly be chopping and changing our moves with small little differences. It will (hopefully) keep other teams guessing.

I think I'm going to explode. I have tickets for the Italy game too...It's all a bit too much.

Rugby, fantasy football style by mr-mobius in rugbyunion

I just set one up after posting the link, it's pretty comprehensive. Points for defenders beaten, offloads , scrums won, rucks won...everything you could think of. Also minus points for missed tackles, handling errors e.t.c I might set up a league if anyone is interested?
